The simple answer is… No! This is because painted radiators have a thin coat of paint on them, which is too thin to make any difference to the heat output. Not only that, it is not your typical paint that is used on radiators. The only time painted radiators can struggle with output is if it is thickly coated with standard paint, which can sometimes happen when you try to DIY and paint a radiator yourself.
Each brand has their own RAL colours and special colours that they offer. If you can’t see any colours you like with one brand, have a look for a similar item with a different brand. You might just find the perfect colour you're looking for with a specific brand.
When you see a radiator you like on our page and would like to choose a RAL colour, then see the description. We have linked each radiator with the brand's finish page so you can easily find the finish you like.
For example; If you are looking at a Reina radiator, visit the Reina finish page and copy the colour code - RAL9001 for cream. Input this in the colour finish option on the radiator page and add to your basket.
When you order a painted radiator from DRD you’ll notice that the quality of the paint is very high. Though we don’t recommend getting a tough metal scrubber. It's ok to clean your painted radiator like any other, with a soft sponge, clean towel and mild soapy water. As it is metal, never use a harsh scrubber as it can cause scratches and can damage the look of your radiator.
Custom radiators do take longer to arrive as they need to be made. Each brand has their own wait times so it does depend on the radiator you decide to go with.
This can vary from 3-4 weeks, 5-7 weeks, 6-8 weeks, 10-12 weeks and so on. If you're unsure about this you can contact our team and they can let you know.
